Affinity Photo Brush Pressure problems


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I recently purchased Affinity Photo along with a Huion Display Tablet (Kamvas GT-156HDV2) and was trying out the brush tool when I noticed that the brushes don't taper very nicely, especially when I start the stroke (was drawing from bottom to top in the attached image). and it also ends a bit funky too.

 

Not sure if it's a tablet driver issue (also contacted Huion) or could be a compatibility problem?

 

UPDATE:

This also seems to be a problem in Affinity Design, but doesn't look to be as bad.
Also, even when I apply pressure at the beginning of the stroke, it starts off with the thin line before it jumps to the correct size.

I use other programs as well (Autodesk Sketchbook and Clip Studio) and I have not encountered this problem

Thank you for your reply! It looks like I have the latest tablet driver for my tablet monitor

Turning on 'High precision tablet input' actually makes it worse - instead of creating curves/lines that follow my arm movement the program just creates a straight line from the starting and end points of my stroke. I attached a video showing the problem.

I'll try different things and see if I can find a work around.

there is also a problem with the tablet in Affinity Design
1. The brush has a similar problem with pen pressure
2. 'High precision tablet input' - I can't screen grab and move the canvas around with the pen while I'm holding down the 'Space' bar.

The problem with some tablets (especially Wacom) persists from the very first beta. It seems like they have difficulties solving that one. It is hardly a driver issue. It's the same problem on every driver for over a year now
